Hello,    I'm using the new Gantt Chart. I'm putting some data in, but the chart won't show up at all. Any one has the same issue?   Take: I put "Project Name" which is a text field. Start Date:...

Hi Anonymous,

 

It is not working. I am using the latest Power BI Desktop & Windows 10. As you said, nothing shows up. I followed the Youtube clip to make sure I wasn't doing anything wrong.

 

Anyone else have any luck ?

 

Microsoft really needs to check it's custom visuals before publishing them. So many of the visuals have bugs. I know they are giving us a test platform to check for compatability issues, but that's like Volkswagen telling its customers 'tough luck' because they didn't do their own independent tests.

I had the same issue. If you change the name of the field that you add as Task to "Task Name" it works. Probably is a bug and needs fixing.

Please send the author a message.

      Just an update, the PowerBI team is informed for the issue and will fix it with a new version.

        Has a new version come out since this was posted (in March of 2016)?  There seems to be a bug with the order of the tasks at least when using a sharepoint task list as the data source.  The order the data is imported in is altered somehow.  There does not seem to be a way to restore that order.  Even using task ID in the task field doesn't retain the original order.  Any help would be appreciated.
